On my 56 Crown Victoria many of the retaining clips are rusted & broken: Mostly the side trim & fender trim areas. Does anyone have a source for these clips or retaining devices? Does any company sell them specifically for our Fords? Thanks for any assistance. Jim

T-Bird products is where i bought mine I believe they are in Conn. Sides, roof, etc. and they had just came out newer better version. Remember to buy some putty to seal the stud part as you put them on and I put putty on the nut as well. I had my painter put on the the front fenders after they were painted off the car. All the rest was set to them. good luck

Tee-Bird likely has what You need. Their Website is no longer active because of Technical Issues. You would have to call them with your needs. They are very helpful. Concours Auto Parts has a Website and shows various Clips and where they are used.
